Totally noticed this Induction trend this year when the secretary at my gynecology office asked me if my daughter who was then only 7-mos pregnant or less, “was going to be induced”
That’s the first time I ever heard of a planned indictment!
This inducing thing is prevalent and completely insane!!! I believe it’s strictly for the doctors convenience, it’s their way to schedule things, so they don’t have to get a call at any day any hour.
It’s for their convenience!!! Induced births are typically a lot more arduous and slow because the cervix/uterus just aren’t primed enough. Many induced births result in cesareans!
And they take advantage of “first time moms” who don’t know enough to say NO! Let nature take its course!
I hate this trend.
Why does everyone seem to need or want things in black and white and in their control? We are becoming a society that can’t seem to be patient, and let things happen when they’re ready. In due time. Man just wants Control over everything
and the pregnant girls aren’t patient enough either to want to wait. They’re uncomfortable so when the md says oh you’re 1CM dilated, come in tonight for an inducement, there jumping up and down with joy!
It blows that everyone’s so naive about induced births and go they aren’t easy because the uterus isn’t ripe. They’re forcing something that’s not ready to function naturally.
even my daughter got scheduled for an inducement - they said her baby was getting “too big” - the baby was maybe 8 pounds something. My grandmother delivered 13 children and she was tiny, but some of her babies were 10 pokinds, she had no problems delivering.
so these doctors, they’ll grab at any straws they can to make it seem like a necessity to induce, and the new snd gullible first time mothers thinknothing of it.
unfortunately I didn’t know any of this until my daughter, not wanting to be induced went swinging in hopes of going into labor because her mother in law said that’s what she did both times for her kids and it worked.
she Swann hard for 20-min and her water broke less than 30 minutes later.
They called the hospital and were told to come in once contractions started but she had no contractions for 8 hours so they called her in and started putocin but no matter how much they gave her the contractions weren’t strong enough (uterus just wasn’t soft and ripe) then she spiked a fever and had to have a cesarean. Spiking fevers after the waters been broken after so many hours is something that can happen.
if I’d known what I know now I would have told her not to swing! Because it doesn’t mean your contractions I’ll start and most likely it’ll be a long labor ending in a cesarean.
too bad.
and what kind of affect does this have on babies astrological signs??? It’s kind of just a joke but if astrological signs mean anything, I’d say induced births astrological signs are not genuine.
there ought to be a big shout out on the cover of some Ng zone educating the public on this horrifying trend. It’s bad and they’re taking advantage of naive first time mothers and also it’s a sign of out society being uncomfortable with waiting and not having something set in stone so induction dates make sense to people giving birth at this time in history.
sad. My granddaughter is perfect but I wish things could have gone her way. She wasn’t quite ready even though her momma was. She could have had a normal vaginal birth. She missed out.
